Originating in Cal Raspallet (Alt Penedés) the wines of the former sommelier Enric Soler are among some of Spain’s most compelling whites made with Xarel.lo garpe variety. We supply three wines from this sought after, highly regarded estate: Nun del Taus, Improvisació, and Espenyalluchs.
"The 2023 Improvisació is Xarel.lo from three plots that total 1.3 hectares. It fermented and matured in Austrian oak vats and concrete eggs for nine months and is possibly the wine with more impact from the vintage. Every year, the color of the label changes, and in 2023, it is a pale orange. The nose is still a little spicy, denoting youth and the effect of the élevage. But the wine is harmonious and complex and should be wonderful with a little more time in bottle. It comes in at 12.5% alcohol, with a pH of 3.11 and 6.1 grams of acidity. It finishes chalky, dry and tasty."
